What Parents Say
Karuna is a wonderful little preschool in Narraweena which has been perfect for our daughter this past year. The educators are professional, experienced and nurturing and the kids really respond well to them. They spend time learning about the world around them and have amazing creative arts projects every week. There is a wide range of activities from yoga to cooking to gardening and they really make the most of the outside time in the beautiful garden....(Read more)
We are so happy we found Karuna. We were familiar with the Montesorri curriculum but new to Sydney so wanted a school and community where our family could thrive. The environment is beautiful and peaceful - inside and out - with amazing equipment and facilities for the kids to explore. A great balance between learning and playing. Just what we wanted in a preschool! We can’t wait to send our three daughters here. Highly recommend.
Being an ex educator myself, selecting the right place for our son to start his education was imperative. From the very start we knew this was the right place for us.
Karuna embodies the genuine Montessori philosophy. With a dedicated Principal and a small community feel, Karuna is an absolute rarity. A beautiful natural outdoor environment, well resourced indoor space (it even has white carpet!!) and enrolment/orientation process that ensures harmony and enjoyment for all children, Karuna Montessori is the perfect place for families who want their children to have the best start.
The new addition of flexible hours for families is testament to the Principal and hard working parent management board that continually listen and evolve the school to stay inline with community needs while balancing a traditional Montessori curriculum.
If you are on the Northern Beaches, THIS is the place you want your children to go!
